Velvet has long been a staple around the holiday season, but in 2021, that soft, luxurious fabric seems to be getting even more popular and with year-round staying power.

This is especially clear when you look at men on the red carpet. Celebrities like Jason Sudeikis , Jake Gyllenhaal and Rege-Jean Page are just a few of the many famous fellows whove sported velvet suits in public appearances this year. Awards show stages are also getting a taste for the material, with performance outfits from the likes of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak (aka Silk Sonic ).
